Let's face it...the Wii is a huge console right now with people desperate to find one. I got mine at launch, but haven't really been ablel to see what the big deal is. Everywhere I look people are talking about the Wii and how good it is. Personally, I can't seem to get into it. The only game I got with it was Zelda, and so far that's been a chore to play with along with Wii Sports. Basically, Wii Sports didn't interest me too much, it feels like a compilation of mini games. Sure you have the Wii controller to use, but all that's different is that you move your arm slightly instead of pressing a button as you would on another console. Now onto Zelda...I'm not a big fan of Zelda, but I gave this one a shot. The beginning of it was definitely a chore to play. Performing useless simple tasks was all I really was able to do. Then yesterday I got to the point where I got the sword. That was fun, using the controller like a sword to slash enemies. I will say that I actually had a little bit of fun for the first time with this console. Then possible spoiler ahead..I only got ~2 hours into the game but I figure I'll put this as a spoiler anyway just incase
Anyway, anyone else not enjoying their Wii? Or does anyone have suggestions for games? I was thinking of TC since I somewhat enjoyed the DS version, but I figure I'd have to use the Wiimote to play with it, which is another thing I cannot stand. I have a hard time even navigating menu's with that pointer because of its sensitivity. In order for the pointer to go from one side of the TV to the other, I have to move the Wiimote less than an inch to the side. I assume I can change the sensitivity, I'll look into that later.
Normally I am a huge Nintendo fan. With every other Nintendo console (NES, SNES, N64, ect), I have fond memories of the first time playing the console. I remember each vividly and have always enjoyed their other consoles. This one I just can't get into.
I'm thinking of selling this or giving it away, but I know games will soon come out that I will want to play (Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, ect) and then I'll have to buy another. But the hype surrounding this system and the trouble people are going through for it is making me want to go and give it to some kid and make his day, which is what I'll probably end up doing.
I got turned into the wolf which ended my fun. Now I have to perform more boring tasks, which is what I'm doing now. On top of that, I have to listen to that stupid monster that follows me chuckling over and over. Honestly, now I can see why people are breaking their TV's with their Wii-mote. Last night, this monster's chuckling was getting on my nerves so I slammed the Wiimote on the carpet and left it at that. I don't know why but it annoyed me that much..
